Category Archives: Dining in Panama

Terrazas de Panamá in Playa Coronado is a new shopping mall / center that is just about finished being buult. We arrived in Playa Coronado, Panamá around 4 months ago and this project was hardly block walls and steel coming up from the foundations. Now it is being painted and is looking like it will be opened any day.

Here are some photos I captured of the new murals today at Terrazas de Panamá Playa Coronado.

After now living here for 4 months its safe to say that we have a pretty good idea of how safe the food and water is! I am a big blogger and fan of groups on Facebook. One of the groups that I check in on daily always has questions about living and moving to Panama. A post just came up asking about the water and food, and was it safe to eat and drink here. The answer is very much YES!!

The community that we live in is lucky to be supplied by well water. It’s so fresh and pure and tastes great. Some other communities are supplied by IDAAN which is the water service for the whole country of Panama. They might have some issues with water if they have old pipes, or a leak in the system but that could happen in the USA or Canada.

If you live in the US or Canada you are probably familiar with Groupon! I have been using it for many years and have bought everything from socks to vitamins, restaurant coupons and really everything in between. Groupon doesn’t have a presence here in Panama, but they do have OfertaSimple which has some amazing deals!

OfertaSimple will have deals that include restaurants, concerts, nail and hair services, trips to local hotels. Right now they have a deal for an all inclusive resort including snacks, drinks and hotel stay for the night.
